Thaumatrope was one of the first optical toys that have been invented. The purpose of this toy was to provide entertainment. John A. Paris had invented this in 1825. Thaumatrope was also known as "Turning Marvel" and " Wonder Turner".
The site made for this topic is very plain and boring. It's white and black. When I first saw this site, I thought that it was very plain and didn't catch my attention. It would be more exciting to look at if they used different colours and maybe a pattern or design to express what the sites about. Although, the information given was clear and thorough. It had great information about the different devices like: who it was made by, why it was made and how it works.
The toy I liked was the one you see above called "Thaumatrope". This toy is created by a disk, two strings attached to it and drawings on the disk. It works by you pulling the strings and it creates the drawings as if they were on top of each other.
